The fleece on the nlerinO ram should be
dense, we'll set and standing well ID
under pressure, and when pressed down
should have sufficient elasticity to return
quickly To its upright position. Tt ought
to be dense rather than long in staple,
and should cover all parts Of the body,
head, legs and underneath the belly. tt
is desirable that this last have the wrin-
kles running down or to and across it,
covered with AZ long, thick wool az the
sides. The face should be covered with q
heavy fOret0p of wool, trimmed round
broadly under the eyes. The model ram
does not have the wool running down very
close to the end of the nose; but ram
with such q face may be proftabIy used

The fleece ought to be as even in length,

Care Of the Feminine Face.

Yes, indeed. They are much more com

they are natural, but again are cultivated
by using some kind Of soapine dentifrice,
which forms Iather about the lips and
encourages the growth Of the hair Tt is
wrong for a woman to make practice Of
washing her face with soap and warm
water, and many nurses injure children
by a too liberal application of both. A

Bryant and A J. Mosset, of Cincinnati, rep
reSentlng southern steamboat interests had
hearing before the Interstate commerce com
mission Wednesday. They said that the state
ments OF the railroads requesting the stispen-
sion of the fourth clause so that the roads
might meet the competition of the steamboats,
were based ON a faliacious conception. The
roads had almost invariably charged less
than the boats to competitive points; that the
intention of the roads was to force the boat
companies into gigantic pool, or force the
boats out of the business to competitive
points. Attidavits in support of the steam
boat companies position were filed, as well
as yolumInOuS schedules of rates

that he had refused to so into the Keokuk

Other clergymen spoke, some declaring that
no law against instrumental music ever eN-
isted and that such law could not be sup
ported by scriptural precept. Others held
that there is such a law now in force Rev.
George c. Vincent declared that the organ
ought TO I've excluded. ats Use, he said, IS
